Lets not be Naive and think that the massive data collection of FB data isn't available because of their methods. Cambridge Analytica proved the possibilities.

This has less to do with data, and more about xenophobia.

Create data privacy laws is the only way to protect the US

Being concerned about China is not xenophobia.

We're talking about a nation who at worst is our enemy and at best a geopolitical foe who is harvesting massive amounts of data to use for purposes which are much worse than targeted ads.

Really they are the worst enemy when we literally have an invasion of Ukraine threatning all of NATO ?? Your response sounds like xenophobia.

Your only threat is they are using US platforms to target ads??

make it make sense

I think you've misread. "a nation who at worst is our enemy", not "a nation who is our worst enemy".

Also "_purposes which are much worse than_ targeted ads".

no I read it, and its all xeno rhetoric
Then you're deliberately misrepresenting what they said. Please don't do that.
